Imagine how much better he'd be if his chair didn't have armrests.
True. True..
I took off the right side armrest.
Or if his windows didn’t have curtains 😂🤣🤘🤘🤘🤘
Lol. Nothing worse.
Hahahahha
This sounds like something I'd hear on an anime OST, and I mean that as the highest form of compliment.
0:19 amazing little chime to start a solo
0:28 - 0:31 very pop-ish singing melody, super catchy
0:41 insane jazz-ish and melodic lick
I competed and overcomplicated the whole thing. I'm glad to see something so melodic and brilliantly succinct winning this contest! Your entry is genius, my friend and your win was well-deserved. Congrats!!!
Guitar Meets Science classy move bro
guitar meets sucker
@@freshlumpia8202 what happened?
Where you been lost..... Iam still waiting for your new videos
freshlumpofballs
I vote Max Ostro for next game changing guitarist. Give him another 5 years to mature but the guy has the phrasing and feel nailed at his age. He plays yngwie better than he does. Go Max go. You should be recognized more. Your skill level at your age is outstanding.
ua-cam.com/video/nb_Uj47N7jc/v-deo.html dont get it...................
@smug Not eve close, im assuming you dont play
Pretty tasteless to hate on the guy who won, when he didn't decide. Why post this on his video? Send it to the guys who chose the winners if you're that compelled. This guy just wrote and nailed a sweet ass solo, regardless of your opinion of Max. He did nothing other than enter.
@smug Like I said you dont actually play, I did look at your channel
@smug Lee Luland blew this away as well. I guess I also measure skill level, I can play this but not the two I mentioned.
Nowadays there are so many great guitar players with great technical ability. But making a beautiful and memorable composition with not too much showing off the skills...only pure genius can do that. You're more than deserved to win this brother!
I've been meaning to make a video about it sometime, because it's interesting to see the split in comments between praise and "better than", as you did.
I worked on my solo early on in the contest, so I didn't worry about the judging criteria, and just tried to put together what I've always thought about a good solo to the best of my ability.
It's something that I can almost sing, and is memorable to the ear.
A phrase that anyone can likely play.
A little playfulness.
You want to pick up a guitar too included.
I hoped that this solo become like that for you guys...
@@rucy1988 "A phrase that anyone can likely play". 👍👍👍
Something that probably most recent guitarists are unlikely to do.
Yep, that’s where it’s at. The young cats would need to go back and learn from great jazz composers, classical composers and symphonic orchestras to understand this. Joe Zawinul, John McLaughlin, Jaco, Coltrane, Miles Davis, Wayne Shorter understood this in the jazz vein.
This is a very good solo for sure but Max Ostro as made an incredible solo for this 2k19 contest. Is the winner for me.
it's not opinion, it's literally a fact. Sadly Mr. Rucy here has already collected his click-bait ad revenue . so....fuck me right? Fuck Max too??
internet without adblock in 2020 omegalul
Kiesel contests were made for human people, not for aliens like Max 🙃
@jabberwolf agree man max is insane, my winner in my opinion
Nope
That blues lick at 40 seconds is straight god tier
0:41 damn dude thats some sick melodic run i like it very much
harambae agreed. That was my favorite line of the solo.
Sounds a little outside if Im not wrong, beautiful solo by the way.
shrx yeah it’s clearly jazzy
@@wassimsehibi8724 But it's frickin' amazing
so sassy
0:40 this lick just gives me the chills!!! nice one dude
Listening to this one year later, still giving me the chills :DD
@@berigeri21 same bruh
heheh same here too :D
This is definitely the best. Solos don't need to be hard to sound good unlike other entries that begins with freaking explosive tapping. This is what i'm looking for.
Thank you so much!
My opus says "Nice to meet you too".👍👍👍👍
When contest ended, I hope you're remembering this entry. CHEERS
well this is still kinda hard. maybe not so fast as some others but the dynamics and few of the runs are pretty advanced
i mean, the sweeps at the end are deff not easy lmao
Agreeeeeee
Very melodicccc
The note selection, the tone, the chops. the composition is moving
...and THAT is why this entry took 1st place- solid phrasing, tone, superbly dynamic, and just enough flash to close it out- brilliant, man!
Thank you so much. In this contest, Important was not high techs, and not avant-garde. It was "comprehensibility" that I think.
But many guitarists and me too are seeking techs or avant-garde...
In that mean, so enjoyed able to see around the world guitarists!
rucy Thanks for the response- hope to see music from you here in the future- again, such a fantastic entry- very well pieced together & executed- makes me smile each time I see & hear it!
@@rucy1988 the COMPREHENSIBILITY.... thats actually the word I wanted to say about this video man
rucy really beautiful phrasing . I listened to alot of the contestants and this was absolutely the most balanced and tasteful. Guitar players often lose sight of the music and join the guitar olympics.. Despite of how technically talented you are you wrote something very pleasant to listen to and satisfying. This is the kind of playing i don’t have to watch to enjoy.. this is playing I could easily listen to in my car and throughly enjoy . This was well deserved. P.s id love tabs for this.
@@colebertram8482 Thanks.... Best praise for me...
To get words of "could easily listen to in my car" is a thing I had aimed. Thanks again!!
Still come back and listen to this every once in a while.
This is one of the best solos I have EVER heard!
It's been a year but i still loved this and will never get tired of listening to it.
Same here man 😇
There are some amazing players in this competition, however Rucy gives me goosebumps while listening to this. Spectacular note choices, technicality, living in and owning this groove, all make me wish this was an entire song. I would bet you are watching the winner right here. Cheers!
Thank you so much. ( :
There was worth I entered the contest if it made you feel that way.
Thanks again!
I can tell someone likes Intervals ;) I heard a little "Sweet Tooth" in there!
Exactly what I was thinking! So much intervals in there - in a good way :)
I like the way it sounds when the next note is different from the previous too...
My EXACT thoughts
That was just absolutely lovely, but for pure "contest purposes", I think the Max Ostro entry was flights above it.
I have to agree. This is a stellar little solo, but Max's effort was other-worldly. No losers here, especially the rest of us who get to watch these young masters at work.
So true. Max is like an alien.
Totally agree.
@Meren I dunno. Max's solo had me kinda emotional which is odd for me. Couldn't even tell you how many times I've listened to it.
@Meren that's why i keeo coming back too this solo!
Don't listen to the people who can't play at 1% of your level. You won and it was well deserved!
it's like the backing track was made for this solo... it's clear why you win the contest.
I don’t understand why everyone is brigading this post with Max Ostro comments? The guy won for a reason, let him enjoy it...
Public forum
Max is an excellent example of a modern day shredder that has yet to learn to pace himself. Of course he also has to plaster his age on all his videos. That way we're more impressed.
because they are morons
Because the kid simply deserved it. I don't wanna diminish the other players credits, all of them are excellent, but the kids solo was the most creative. Kiesel didn't award him because he's endorsed by Ibanez.
@@CanalFalarFluente No he didn't. His solo has no musicality, it was all show-offy. Its like he forgot he was making music. Maybe if you're a robot judging entries off of purely technical ability then maybe he would've won.
Good job, but I still think Max Ostro should have won!
Max took way bigger chances, I think his playing was amazing.
Agreed
Nope, Max solo is boring as hell
@@fly-high-me your a idiot!
@@fly-high-me Fuck off
The first of all the videos I watched for the contest that really cared about harmonies and melodies. Congrats man!
Thank you for comment! Please try to listen other awesome entries too!!
This had me wishing it didn't last only 1 minute, I wanna listen to this for 10 hours damn it! Please make like a continuing to this solo, maybe a full song, I need it so bad!
Simple. Elegant. Beautiful.
Worthy.
I know the contest is over, but I have come back to listen to this several times. You did a really good job.
This was so luscious. I always really enjoy guitar work that makes such skill sound beautiful.
0:27 - those two notes just a semi-tone apart, very assured, very nice and to my ears very reminiscent of some of Plini's playing. An incredible effort.
I'm feeling conscious "Major added 4th" more than "Suspended 4th" on there.
Thank you!
This's the proof that a good solo doesn't need to be super fast or extra complicated. Just smart!
It's been a year and something and I'm still here, I can't stop listening your solo, definitely the best!
Probably the best solo of all guitar solo contests ever held.
ua-cam.com/video/RFPMG6y-uZY/v-deo.html
Not to take away from this one, but for me that title would go to Nick Llerandi's Mayones/Seymour Duncan Solo Contest entry from 10 years ago, super complex and harmonically different yet I still have the motifs from it pop into my head from time to time to this day
That sounds amazing, and even you uploaded the tabs, wonderful
So my favorite won! Tough competition with hella talent deserving a win as well but I felt like yours shined with the balance of technique and musicality. Congratulations!
I like the super restrained intro that continues as a theme throughout. I can tell that you held back from a technical standpoint for the sake of keeping it melodic and musical. Nice work! Hope you find similar enjoyment from mine- I think we took a similar approach.
SUPER ANALYZER...Hooo
Because I thought The entries become much and Listeners loses interest, I wanted everybody to be listening another song feel and I inserted simple arpeggio constantly.
I promise to see your entry and leave a comment later!
CHEERS!
Very creative, beautifully phrased, just amazing!
Sweet song, this solo is on the top list...👍
outstanding technique bro!! ppl think that playing fast and stuff is tough but playing with such beautiful smooth technique is actually the real deal. well freaking done dude 1st place very well deserved
BEST OF THE BEST BRO !! HOPE YOU WILL WIN THE CONTEST
That lick at :40 and the clean arpeggio sweeps that follow are impeccable.
THAT OPENING THO!!!!! 😱😱😱😱
I added you to the playlist with all the entries
I literally listen to this every day. It's obvious you're a true master at your craft.
Thank you for a lots watching! I'm glad to get that words!
that 0:37 - 0:40 phrase... it's magic!
There are other people who feel that way. Thank you so much!
Man! Now that I saw who you are! It was one of the videos I liked the most because I identify with your way of composing. Very feeling, beautiful and impressive solo 🙏
Thanks so much for your comment on my video.
Thanks too much!
I wished submit a comment actively my favorite players because receiving a comment is so happy.
Thank you for check my entry again! CHEERS!
wow nice solo, im joining the contest too so... good luck to both of us and others ;)
One of the BEST solos I've EVER heard. ANYWHERE.
Not. One. Tap. Bravo Sir.
Great part. Funny how people come on here to say that they think Max Ostro should've won instead of just appreciating your work.
Rucy, you rock so much dude. I listen to this solo over & over again. One of my all-time favorites!
sorry this is great, perfect sound, but max...lol! congrats
An extended version of this masterpiece would be awesome. This is my favorite solo of the contest. Nice work dude
Thank you so much!
It will just right because this is jingle size.
I want to make original songs more but I don't start reluctantly..haha
I'm going to think it a little if this contest end and my motivation rose. ( :
@@rucy1988 i beg for a 3 minute improv of this backing track
@@MustangDesudiroz That's hell.😭😭😭
@@rucy1988 just mess around😍🎸
So much Marco Sfogli in here :) even his hands positions
Simple but amzing tune.
Well done man. Well deserved 🤘🤘🤘
Simply the best..other have millions of notes that you cant understand them anymore..😂😂
For the beginners: Composing and playing dynamic solos like these are way harder and pleasing to ears than playing 5000 notes per beat and tapping with 11 fingers
Not really harder but is definitely more pleasing to listen to for some people
Really enjoyed your rendition and think it deserves the #1. Thanks for including the tab.
great lines, great melody. amazing work
Amazing!! 0:41 this lick melodic asf man
Incredibly badass, I’ll take melody over flash any day.
Ahhh! This was crazy! I think you should win this contest! The phrasing was really melodic and memorable. Just perfect!
@marchristian ligutan I'm glad get such words from the man of musician.
I worth it. Thank you so much!
I was rooting for max ostro. Hehehehe
Your rooting must have worked. I saw Max's video.. He stomped all over this.. Max could have played this when he was 5
@@ST-cy6we thats Rigth bro!
Max Ostro is a virtuoso. No doubt about it. But he wouldnt have been able to write the solo as melodic this. If you think the contest is just about technique then you guys are missing the point.
@@friendlyskiespodcast I agree with you guys. Writing a good, catchy melody with dynamics & emotion can be just as hard, if not harder than fast technical runs
Max won...this is who they called first for...unbelievable.
a lot of talented players but so far this is my fav entry.
Amazingly good solo.Great phrasing and good note choices. Sweeps in the end were truly sweet ;) Good luck for the contest. Most definitely your solo is going to be ranked high ;)
I keep coming back to this one a lot. Such a great melodic solo :) cheers from Norway!
the phrasing is amazing the sweeps oh my so cleaaaaannnnn the winner for sure
Wonderfully melodic and tasteful and a very enjoyable listen. You have a great talent!
No wonder you got the 1st place, much love from indonesia❤
What a beautiful composition. Something I like to listen to on a rainy sunday :)
Contest will about to end... A little lonely but Thank you for watching, thumbs up, subscribe and comment,,, I'm glad you praise various parts of this solo.
More than anything, I was able to find many welly musicians and I got a stimulus! It's probably not only me.
I'm proud to enter the biggest scale contest on KIESEL's past !
Let's Keep Up!
Congratz bro for your achievement
ua-cam.com/video/iZ9sgQ-qGK4/v-deo.html , ua-cam.com/video/xP8iEBvnpAE/v-deo.html That's my two entries of me I would give before the accident ......(sad)
Realy cool. You actualy play with the track and not over it. Great piece. Good phrasing. Well done🤘🤘🤘
สุดดจัดดดดดดด😜😜😜
ปลัดบอก555
dude. this was the most wholesome guitar lines i've ever seen.. melodic, bit of shred, pretty balanced, well written and of course absolutely well played, congrats!
that 2-note D chord in the begining... gave me chills all over me
Those sweeps at the end were sweet 👌👌
always the same feeling everytime i listen to this... amazing
Nice solo man! Reminds me a bit of Andy James. Very nice melody. Cheers!
Dude, what the hell?! That is some juicy ass melody gah damn!
he quoted Plini at :28 if you didn't realize
Tasty playing, Rucy! Loved it!
Good luck to everyone!
I feel like chipping in a bit. Since I've seen new comments pouring in. Here's my take..technically, Max was unmatchable and he was melodic as well. But, the phrasing on this one is impeccable. I can actually sing the parts and that's the beauty of it. Anyway, they're both phenomenal players. The UA-cam guitar community should be more supportive instead of just arguing about ..who has more strings..who plays faster.
Such a gorgeous lemon grass finish on that guitar and the playing of course without saying is top notch!!
seems like every 5 years there's a new trendy "must have" technique included in every song, I'm hoping the end of sweeps is near, I'm bored to death of them lol. OH! sorry, I thought this was beautifully done :) gj mate!
That's a really nice composition, great balance of melodies, skills and storytelling. Top!
Superlative Praise Words.. 😭😭
@@rucy1988 you deserve, what you deserve ;) congrats for the top 30!
@@JackRosei I didn't know it until few minutes ago. lol
I'm thanking really!
Cool phrasing.. Love it ❤
Ayo tunjukkan kemaluanmu brow...eh...kemampuanmu ....ku tunggu videomu
Your melody has been stuck in my head for weeks. I often hear myself singing the melody on random times.
En estos niveles la tecnica es lo de menos, practicamente todos los concursantes son excelentes guitarristas.
Solo queda ver cual de todos tiene mejor "llegada" a la gente, gusta mas.
Dicho esto, solo puedo acotar que Max logro que me guste muchisimo mas su trabajo.
Pero no puedo negar que Rucy es muy bueno tambien.
What a gorgeous solo
I'd like to hear an instrumental guitar album filled with this kind of songs
me toooooo
check out Guitarists on Demand and the G5 Project, should be about what you're looking for
By fsr my favorite. It lives in my head. Love it.
Max ostro solo was good , but rucy solo tell a story that IS the différence !
400th comment. This is the style I strive for. So amazing. I hope to find myself making something as creative as this!
0:28 reminds me to Aaron Marshall. Nice solo btw!
that is Plini actually! Song: Flâneur (4:10)
I watch this like every other day still. Such a killer solo.
That's my favorite entry, very melodic and tells you a story :) what guitar is that ? I love green guitars XD.
congrats
I wanted to share with you guys what I think that musical importance on this solo.
It was worth doing because I felt like that was acknowledged a little.
This guitar called "STRADA" was trance red but It changed to trance green burst on my will.
Thank you so much!
He has a Realy Nice sound,and his tecknicalty is mindblowing,not a kakafoni of tones,,But he has this smashing melodi going in the solo,,,ME like this a lot,,,Congratulations With the FIRST PLACE,,,WELL DONE👌👌👍🤝🤝👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Please create a full version of this song. So melodic and tasty🤗
This goes hard while still being Beautiful great stuff :)
Really good solo, but Max Ostro should have won. His playing is original, virtuose, melodic and original. I really dont get it....🙁
Max Ostro Was the perfect example of the danger of being overly technical without a good foundation. Yeah, he's really good, but If you know about guitar and playing music, you can see It's just a bunch of licks and scales played In a rapid fashion with expertise. There's not a lot of soul In this kind of playing 'cause It's very self indulgent and It leaves no breathing room. The winner gets It, It's not just about you being able to play, It's how you can weave your notes, while being able to tell a story, at the same time.
@@nobodyinterestingyou
I'm aware of everything you wrote. Except from the part with "the bunch of licks and scales" I agree.That's why I don't understand why Max Ostro didn't win.
@@nobodyinterestingyou The foundation is the backing band, Max's job is to simply lead off of that starting from any note or position on the guitar he pleases, if you know guitar and playing music then you'll know that it's all about personality and freedom of expression which Max did to the best of his skill level and it's not just a bunch of licks and scales to the guitarist, it is more than just that to them, it's their own personal display of accomplishment and celebration of the instrument.
There are no set rules to playing guitar, a player can do what they want however they please, if they wish to be flashy or take the simple and basic approach that's just fine, but one can go beyond the simple boundaries and limitations if their abilities allow them.
Every musician has soul even in Max's "kind of playing" which sounds very reminiscent of guitarist Scott Mishoe's "kind of playing" on the track Mal-Funk-Shen from his album Omnidirectional.
Max's ideas for his solo seems to be heavily influenced from a lot of hybrid /economy picking fusion rock guitarists in the likes of Frank Gambale, Brett Garsed, Guthrie Govan and Tom Quayle, whom also display "this kind of playing" something of which clearly doesn't satisfy your musical taste.
I have to disagree, it IS about you being able to play, it's players choice on how they weave their notes, it's their own story to tell and not merely something to satisfy or please the ego's of onlookers and listeners.
As for the winner, his solo is also fantastic and I congratulate him and the many other fine guitar players who submitted an entry, well done to you all.
why are you still commenting this? this contest is over a year old, just appreciate the solo
määp kind of hypocritical to say something about commenting on a year old video while you're commenting...
One of my favorite entries
I love how jolly and playful it is! Actually reminded me a lot about Jess Lewis's stuff. What are the modes you use in this solo?
